The pain during the Sculptra procedure is kept to a minimum because we use:

• Injectable lidocaine to virtually eliminate unpleasant sensations; 
• Atraumatic blunt tip cannula to make the entire process smooth and uneventful.

• In the first few days following the injections, the buttock area will feel heavy and there may be some swelling.The patient may require some mild pain relief of the type typically available over the counter at a pharmacy without a prescription.A course of antibiotics will be required to be taken following the buttock injections to minimise the risk of infection.

Sculptra BBL requires minimal aftercare with the following simple steps to follow:

• There is no downtime as you can return to normal activities immediately;
• Gentle massaging of the buttocks to help distribte the PLLA filler and avoid forming small knots by following 5-5-5 (triple 5) rule: this stands for 5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days after your treatment;
• Avoid sitting on hard surfaces for 5-7 days; feel free to carry a cushion around you for extra comfort;
• Forgo strenuous exercise for 5 days allow the filler to settle and to prevent infection;
• Avoid smoking or drinking for 2 days following the butt augmentation procedure;
• Take over-the-counter painkillers like Ibuprofen and Motrin to decrease post-procedural discomfort

One of the reasons Sculptra treatments for non-surgical butt enhancement are so popular is that they don’t take up much of your time. An entire session will only take around 45 to 60 minutes total. That’s less time than it takes to watch a movie or go out to dinner.

Dr. Islam exclusively uses a sterile, long, medium-sized cannula when administering Sculptra liquid butt injections. These cannulas are part of his custom technique to decrease the chance of side effects and ensure the best aesthetic outcome. 

• The filler is precisely deposited in the mid adipose layer and above the gluteus muscles. Given the amount of collagen that can grow as a result of the Sculptra injections it is crucial that is has room to expand; injecting more superficially and close to the skin will inhibit the proper production of collagen and tissue volume that are necessary to achieve your desired results. Dr. Islam is aware of YouTube videos where a superficial approach to Sculptra injections is used leading to mixed outcomes because the production of collagen is stalled. Using a cannula additionally avoids major bruising associated with injections via needles.
• Dr. Islam uses his custom blend of Poly-L-lactic acid and Hyaluronic acid gel molecules in his Sculptra mix – this hybrid version of the classic Sculptra mixture offers more immediate, longer lasting, and more voluptuous results that cannot be matched using Sculptra filler alone. Dr. Islam has worked on this special creation, so you can finally get your Sculptra results faster, fuller, and skip the 1 – 2 month wait to see that peachy bootie!

The side effects following your Scuptra butt treatment are minimal and insignificant.

The following list makes up the most frequently encountered side effects:

• Mild bruising at the site of cannula insertion, which tends to resolve over 2-5 days;
• Mild soreness and tenderness, which is alleviated with any over-the-counter pain killers like Ibuprofen, Motrin or Aleve;
• Mild swelling lasting up to 48 hours before the fillers fully settle;
• Infection at the site of insertion is extremely rare, but is quickly resolved with a short course of antibiotics;
• Formation of tiny granulomas that are not visible under the skin is also a rare occurrence and tends to fade over 2-4 months;

Remember that Sculptra injections require some patience – the changes will only become noticeable around 6 weeks after your treatment.

• Initial swelling is secondary to sterile water in which Sculptra is reconstituted and takes 1-2 days to be absorbed by the body tissues;
• Sculptra relies on your body’s immune response to boost collagen levels – some patients may be more responsive than others;
• The number of vials you used, and whether or not they were combined with HA or Radiesse fillers;
• If you are planning to get more Sculptra injections, you have to wait at least 6 weeks before doing so; many patients who want to see quicker, more dramatic results go for around 3 sessions within a 2 to 4 month period;
• If you elect to get a custom fusion of Hyaluronic acid gel, Radiesse, and Poly-L-lactic acid you be getting plumper and bigger butt as soon as you leave your appointment. This patented combination is highly sought after and only offered at Age Well Dr.

Many patients who come for a consultation with Dr. Islam have the same question: “Will 4 vials of Sculptra be enough to see a difference?” The answer to that question is that it depends. Based on Dr. Islam’s experience and the results he has seen over the years 4 vials will produce the bare minimum results per cheek, and most of his patients start with 8-10 vials of Sculptra per cheek mixed with 4-6 vials of hyaluronic acid filler. 

It is not uncommon for patients to have 60-100 vials over the course of 1 year to achieve the best results possible, however, the standard average number of vials used through the course of treatment is around 40 vials. 

The total number of Sculptra vials can be adjusted based on patients’ individual response to Sculptra induced collagen production and their desired outcomes.

Liquid butt lift tends to stick around for 3 to 4 years. You can rejuvenate the results of your butt lift by booking follow-up appointments periodically over the course of 1 to 3 years. You don’t need to resign yourself to the pull of gravity and aging as repeated Sculptra injections over many years will keep your bum looking timeless.

Sculptra butt lift is an advanced non-surgical procedure that is offered at a few select medical practices with highly skilled and experienced providers. The following factors determine the cost of your Sculptra butt lift:

• The cost of 1 vial of Sculptra is between $400 and $1000;
• Number of vials that can be injected in a single session is 8-30 vials;
• Total cost per single session of Sculptra BBL can range from $2000 to $10000
• The geographical location of the clinic – clinics in large cities tend to charge more than suburban and rural practices;
• The experience and degree of your injector – Medical Doctors will charge more than a nurse;
• You can receive “volume” discounts when you commit to a large number of vials, which is usually at least 20 vials.

For best butt augmentation results Dr. Islam prefers to combine Sculptra with other biocompatible dermal fillers. 

Sculptra takes a few months for results to fully visualize and combining Sculptra filer with other dermal fillers, such as Radiesse (Calcium Hydroxylapatite) or hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers like Juvederm or Restylane, improves both short term and long term results. 

Hydrophilic gel molecules of hyaluronic acid fillers produce instantly recognizable results as they absorb water and immediately increase in size upon injection. Both Radiesse and hyaluronic acid fillers can be used on their own or in combination with Sculptra to boost the efficacy of the liquid BBL.

Dr. Islam notes the most common areas of concern that his patients present include hip dips, saggy buttcheeks and flat glutes. For many of his patients a fun day at the beach turns into a nagging voice reminding them of oddly shaped buttocks – thankfully, getting a liquid BLL with Sculptra filler can actually address all of these issues.

Rounding out hip-dips for a more fluid body line or creating the look of a higher, more lifted bum, or achieving that upside-heart bottom shape that is so popular are all possible with the liquid filler boost.

If you have a modest or frankly flat booty, then you know what it’s like to gaze at more shapely bums and wonder how you can get there. Below are major factors that influence how your butt looks:

• Lifestyle and genetics work together to determine how fat is distributed in the body; some people lack the natural anatomy and fat reserves for the lush buttocks they desire. A lot of people opt for rigorous workouts, putting time and sweat into training glutes. While toning the thighs, trimming down the waist, and bolstering the gluteus muscles can certainly help, frequently nature stands in the way. 
• Getting older makes you susceptible to the dragging force of gravity, causing your butt to lose fat and its natural shape and pert. 
• Pregnancy and fluctuations in weight can also diminish the plumpness of your bottom.

That’s why so many turn to butt enhancement procedures like the Sculptra butt lift to lend a helping hand when it comes to shaping their dream hourglass figure. The collagen production brought on by Sculptra butt fillers can rejuvenate your buttocks by reversing the degrading effects of aging and enhancing your own anatomy.

While you may want to look like a popular, curvaceous celebrity, and have seen bubbly booties on social media feeds it’s important to understand what Brazilian Butt Lift is:

• Requires full anesthesia;
• Necessitates liposuction from other body parts and may leave them unsightly after fat is removed;
• Significant recovery time with a lot of pain, bruising and restrictions of normal activities;
• Significant time away from work, exercise, and social life while you recover;
• While the results are immediate, contour irregularities are common. That means the end result can look botched and asymmetric and the total butt volume can decrease as much as 60% over the few post-surgical months;
• Butts after BBL may look hard and unnatural;
• Surgical BBLs come with the risks of infection, seroma, oil cysts, and even fat embolisms that can, in the worst scenarios, lead to death.

Sculptra butt injections, on the other hand, have a very low frequency of any side effects at all, most of which are minimal and temporary:

• Sculptra BBL is virtually painless with local anesthesia;
• Minimal bruising and tenderness for a few days;
• Butt injections are quick and take about 40 minutes from start to finish;
• Immediate return to normal activities except for strenuous exercise;
• No risk of infection or contour irregularities;
• Sculptra BBL before and after results always look and feel natural as your own collagen makes the butt bigger. 

When it comes to any kind of butt augmentation, you may have concerns about your backside looking fake and plastic and feeling hard to a touch. This is applicable in case of silicone butt implants, which sometimes take on an unnatural appearance because of the dense fibrous capsule that body forms around them and their propensity to break and dislodge. 

But Sculptra BBLs are different – they actually look and feel real! The natural look of a Sculptra BBL is thanks to the way the filler spreads and gradually replaced by your body’s own collagen. Within a few months, you are left with a bottom that looks naturally fabulous. You will be happy to hear that not only does it look organic – it feels that way, too! There is no hardness as there is with surgical implants. Every curve and contour will be fully yours to own and enjoy!
